A Christian. A Muslim. A Jew.
Three people that certain politicians, pundits, and cable news hosts would have you believe are destined to fear each other.

And last and most importantly, to the greatest fans in the world. We did it for you. Your support in every arena, it felt like a home game wherever we played…Unbelievable"
